The Christian Faith Under Modern Searchlights

The lectures present a definition of Christian faith as a supernatural revelation and take a comprehensive survey of contemporary challenges from naturalistic and pantheistic philosophies and from historical criticism. They compare primitive Christian testimony with Pauline emphases, scrutinize Christological and Passion-resurrection claims, and consider the implications of modern science—especially evolutionary theory—and the psychological study of religious experience for belief. The argument urges an intelligent faith that welcomes impartial inquiry, cautions against conclusions drawn from philosophical prejudice, and maintains that careful historical and philosophical examination can clarify and strengthen core Christian claims without surrendering critical standards.
